Christian soldiers?

Michael L. “Mikey” Weinstein, a former judge advocate general in the U.S. Air Force, founded the Military Religious Freedom Foundation to address problems of religious establishment in the country’s military. His concern began when his son, the sixth member of his family to attend the Air Force Academy, told him about the anti-Semitic insults and strident Christian evangelizing he encountered at the academy. Recently Weinstein’s organization and U.S. Army Specialist Jeremy Hall filed a lawsuit naming the Department of Defense and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates as defendants. Weinstein, a graduate of the Air Force Academy, is author of With God on Our Side: One Man’s War Against an Evangelical Coup in America’s Military.
